Hi
I've been on Citalopram (20 mg) for about 10 months now, for depression and anxiety. It's really helped and I haven't had any anxiety in the disordered sense at all since it kicked in, until now! I've started having the physical symptoms of it, racing heart, sweating etc. and have been feeling restless and unable to concentrate.
Has anyone experienced a relapse in symptoms while on ADs? Could it be that I have built up a tolerance of it? I'm concerned if I go to the doctor they might up my dose which then might become a never ending cycle of getting my dose upped every time I get tolerant, if that makes sense?
I'd really like to come off them one day when I'm settled (I'm at uni at the moment, so lots of change and moving around in the next few years, meaning I feel I'll need something to stabilise me). I'm really sick of relying on pills to be a functioning human being to be honest!
Any experiences/advice would be really helpful, thanks
